Summer Camp

Summer Camp for Grades K-7: Make New Friends and Learn New Skills

At the summer camp at the Groton Country Club, children who have completed grades K-7 participate in a variety of sports and activities including, but not limited to, golf, swimming, tennis, and team building skills. Our day campers develop self confidence, learn fair play and benefit from daily social interaction with their peers. We welcome all children of different skill levels and athletic abilities in a summer experience that is safe and fun!

Each week centers around a different theme. Parents can book Summer Camp on a weekly or daily basis.

Healthy snacks and lunches are included! We aim to make parents' lives easier. We have early drop off, extended care and post-camp family specials at the pool. Get your summer camp on for the whole family!

Golf:

Kids will take golf lessons on the putting green, and at the driving range. Our PGA Professional Shawn Campbell provides instruction on grip, stance, swing, and golf etiquette. Golf clubs are provided.

Swimming:

Summer Camp includes swim lessons taught by our certified instructors. Children are evaluated on Day 1 for skill level. Extra swim time is available on very hot days.

Daily attendance is taken. In the event that a child is not present and we have not received notification, we will place a call to confirm the child’s absence.

Pick-up time is 4:00 PM. Children are released only into the custody of the parent(s)/caretaker(s) listed on the Camp Medical Form.
